freebsd stable - Jan 2007 - rd.d/power_profile: dev.cpu.0.cx_supported doesn't exist

Hi,

After updating to 6.2-STABLE Sun Jan 28 02:57:55 CET 2007 (GENERIC), I 
get an error on startup from sysctl, because dev.cpu.0.cx_supported 
doesn't exist. I think I tracked it down to this update:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/rc.d/power_profile.diff?r1=1.9&r2=1.10&f=h

I guess it's because I'm not running powerd, but if that's the case,
should powerd_enable="NO" be changed to powerd_enable="YES"
in
/etc/defaults/rc.conf? Or is it some sort of mistake?

On my amd64 system, I've got powerd up and working, but
'dev.cpu.0.cx_supported' doesn't exist here either. Do you perhaps
mean
'hw.acpi.cpu.cx_supported' because that does exists here.
